Does anyone know if there is a way to tag a post so that it will be known as spam. Personally, I get enough spam as it is without have to see it show up on this forum. At least that way we can tag these things and not even give them the satifaction of anyone even reading their posts. Just a thought, let me know if anyone has any idea or if it is even possible. I think we have a good thing going here and I am willing to try to do something to keep it clean and useful. SSS

Look at all the crap popping up today. Is it a full moon or something?

I suspect that we're seeing what Holly usually stops.
I at least hope, that Holly has a long weekend off, & is enjoying it, with better things than reading all the posts on these forums!

Don't read the threads, don't reply to them and move on with your life.
Policing a BBS is the members responsibility in part, pointing these things out to the moderator is that responsibility. If there is too much spam that you don't like, then move on to somewhere else.
Remember moderators are people who have lives of their own.
